Official Thread Fable IV

The art people they hired at Playground have super impressive work. I wonder how close the actual visuals will be to the art style. That stuff is jaw dropping. I'm completely burned out on open world games but that looks like a world I'd like to explore.

I just hope it has some form of co-op. Maybe like a 3-player team Destiny style. Perfectly playable on your own but also a ton of fun in a team.

Isn't that why Fable Legends was canceled? It was an MMO, and didn't make it past beta.

Fable Legends was a 3v1-sorta hack n slash. If there was an MMO aspect to it I don't remember it from the beta.

2 or 3 player coop would be a ton of fun, especially if you have a group of varying builds. I always thought a coop mode in skyrim would have been so cool. I think coop in RPGs is something that doesn't happen often enough. I'm really interested to see how this game turns out, I hope playground knocks it out of the park. A lot of my interest is going to lie in how they handle combat and skills / leveling.

Well, it's listed under the MMO genre and at MMO sites. Even the media was calling it an MMO. Personally, I didn't know what to call it.


Still, Fable Legends continued on in development, even though some staffers expressed disinterest in the MMO

Legends was not an mmo, I play a lot of MMOs and that game was not...yes, I also played the beta.
Ok, that's fine. I was just saying that is what gaming and media sites were saying. I played it too, but my memory is so short, I don't even recall the game anymore.
 
Fable legends was a max of 5 players wasn't it? 4 heroes and the 1 playing being the overlord or whatever? I never played it but thats what I remember hearing about. Nothing massive about that multi-player...

Yeah, wiki says: Fable Legends was based around four Heroes and a Villain.
 
I wonder if this time we can plant an acorn in adolesence and see it grow into a tree as an adult, or develop allergies or any number of the other things once claimed would be possible that never came to fruition. I just want the combat to be fun and engaging, for exploration to be rewarding and for the interactions with NPCs to have more depth than in the past.... And I know I've said this before, but if we can't lop off heads in combat, I'll be decidedly underwhelmed....

Old bump here, but I'm gonna come out and say that Fable 1 and 2 were great games.

3 kinda stunk
I like all three, but 3 was my favorite outside of the forced NPC cutscene interactions.
